Wiring - T+A TLS 20 A User Manual

Using the loudspeakers for the first time
TALIS active loudspeakers feature an internal electronic
mains switch. The switch is activated by a switching voltage
which must be present at pin 4 of the DIN input socket. The
source device with which you wish to operate the loud-
speakers must therefore include a suitable DIN output
socket. The active speakers will then activate themselves
automatically when the source device is switched on.
Note:
In stand-by mode the speakers require no power.
Note:
The speakers are supplied as standard with an accessory
adaptor for use with devices which do not feature a
switched DIN output socket. This includes a barrel plug to
which a voltage in the range +5 to +20 V must be applied in
order to switch on the speakers.
If you are using a  device without a DIN output socket,
connect the barrel plug to the CTRL-Out socket.
If you are using a different make of device, or a unit
without a CTRL socket, it will be necessary to retro-fit a
switching voltage output. Please ask your specialist dealer
for details of this.
The Cinch plugs attached to the adaptor must be
connected to the signal output sockets of the source
device.

Wiring:

First connect the mains sockets on the rear face of the
loudspeakers using the mains leads supplied; connect each
plug to a separate switched mains outlet socket.
Connect the DIN input socket on the rear face of the first
loudspeaker to the DIN output socket of your source
device.
If your source device does not feature a DIN output socket,
use the adaptor (supplied) to connect the speaker to a
Cinch pre-amplifier output.
If your source device does not include a Cinch pre-amplifier
output, please read the section entitled „Connection to
power amplifier outputs".
The next step is to complete the connection between the
DIN output socket of the first loudspeaker and the input
socket of the second speaker. This is carried out using the
second DIN connecting lead supplied with the speakers.
Note:
The two loudspeakers bear stickers marked left and right.
You can use the right or left speaker as the first unit in the
connection sequence; this has no influence on the opera-
tion of the loudspeakers.
This completes the wiring process, and the speakers are
ready for use. If you now switch on the source device, the
TALIS active loudspeakers will switch themselves on auto-
matically. A green LED lights up to indicate the ready
status. The LED is located behind the grille on the lower
part of the front panel.
